You can easily use 🕹 [apk.sh](https://github.com/ax/apk.sh) and the updated script from [https://github.com/ax/android-fingerprint-bypass](https://github.com/ax/android-fingerprint-bypass) to test the fingerprint authentication of any Android app (on non-rooted devices).

How about sharing results?
